We then get a video showcasing the team working on the vehicle experience, more assets created for the upcoming prison gameplay coming next month in alpha 3.9, geology and harvestable assets for planets, holograms, re-entry effects, the Cutlass Blue, the Carrack and even early work on the Hercules Starlifter. 

A third video focuses on concept design, showcasing the Starr Runner and the Carrack.
